|  Got my first Truck(1:1) Pics
My dad bought me my first car last night, an 88 dakota Le 4x4 for 795 bucks , the motor needs overhauled,My plans are to rip off the topper and tear off the running boards, and 30-31 inch BFG all terrain tires. I also have to buy a patch pannel and weld it in a slap some paint on it for the lower rear part of the front left fender as it has rotted out. it also has a bedliner. other than that smal spot of rust this truck is clean!

yea it runs, but it is knocking pretty good and has low oil pressure, ussally signs of worn bearings. I would imagine its getting pretty tired too as it has 175,000 miles on it, Were gonna start tearing it down once we get back from my uncles wedding sometime next week
